UFC President Dana White slightly understated the number of fans on hand for Wednesday’s UFC Fight Night 27 event in Indianapolis, and the official tally shows there were 6,417 attendees for the FOX Sports 1-broadcast card.

MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) recently requested and today received the official tally from the Indiana Gaming Commission’s athletic division. The originally reported live gate of $355,290 proved accurate.

While the number of “comp” or free tickets was not revealed, the figures represent an average revenue of $55.37 per ticket issued.

UFC Fight Night 27 was the promotion’s second visit to Indianapolis. In September 2010, the UFC 119 pay-per-view headlined by Frank Mir vs. Mirko “Cro Cop” Filiovic drew 15,811 fans for a $1,588,163 live gate. That figure included a total of 2,028 tickets that were issued complementary

While some concerned observers pointed to the large decline as a sign of declining MMA demand, UFC President Dana White said he was satisfied with the results.

“You’re not going to roll in on a Wednesday night and do $2.5 million gates,” White told MMAjunkie.com. “You’re just not going to do that, and especially with a ‘Fight Night.’

“That’s a big number in a small market, and if you look at historically what we do on ‘Fight Nights,’ it’s on par. … We’ll make Wednesdays work, and we’ll figure out the gate.”

UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey is probably the greatest female fighter on the planet, which is a tremendous feat. So why are we seemingly so obsessed with arguing about whether she could beat up men?
